About our kitchen sink repair in Akebar

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If you are dealing with damage from fitting or moving appliances and chips in ceramic sinks, we can typically put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
  • Doors swollen by water
  • Sinks cracked through the base

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Composite sinks
  • Vinyl-wrapped doors
  • Cabinet ends & plinths
  • Gloss and matt cupboard doors
  • Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks

What kitchen sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in Akebar

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

How to compare quotes

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Should you replace it?

Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Akebar. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
